In tonight's America's Got Talent episode, America's Got Talent was back tonight. Heidi was out this season, but it's okay because they brought back Mel B. She was the only one that could rile Simon up worse than the bad acts of the night. It especially galls the both of them when they agree on something.
The first act of the night was Erick Booker. He was a retired subway conductor from NYC. His talent was grossing people out. He's willing to drink disgusting stuff like pickle juice, hotdog water, hot sauce, and worse. Mel was not having it from the start.
Mel quickly pressed the reject button. Sofia then pressed hers. Mel pressed Howie's. She even pressed Simon's as well. Everyone called Mel grumpy. She wasn't. Or at least not then. She was genuinely horrified. She worried about Eric's stomach. The others were too and, while Simon claimed he would have said yes if Eric went a little bigger, that's a lie because he also blamed Mel for jinxing their twentieth season. The next act of the night was Team Recycle. They were a dance group that met fifteen years ago.
The dance group claimed their name because they take a little from everywhere to make it new. They were great dancers. They also didn't stay put on the stage. They used the whole room to their benefit and they livened the whole audience. Three of the four judges gave them a standing ovation at the end because they were that impressed. It was just Mel that didn't stand. Nor did she give them a yes. She wasn't all that taken away by what happened and that's when she truly earned the grumpy moniker from earlier.
Team Recycle was the first act through tonight in spite of Mel. Next up was Zak Mirz. He's a magician. He saw David Blaine on tv as a kid and he knew right away that he wanted to do that for the rest of his life. He was now a married father of one. He told his daughter that they could open her present early tonight if he impressed everyone with his magic. Simon was worried for him. He didn't need to be because Zak was a showman. He managed to get everyone down the path he set. He wowed them with his magic.
